November is National Native American Heritage Month

 

November is National Native American Heritage Month. During this time, we examine the history and culture of our nation's Indigenous Peoples. In addition to print titles, the CML has hundreds of relevant K-8 fiction and non-fiction e-books related to Native American history and culture.

Through our subscription to TeachingBooks, you can find teaching ideas and materials for hundreds of books by scanning the QR codes in the library or visiting the resources here. Please visit these sites for even more teaching resources for this month.

Banned Books Week is October 1-7

 

While efforts to remove or restrict access to books have risen dramatically in recent years, this is not a new phenomena. Banned Books Week was initiated in 1982 in response to similar efforts. This year, we note Banned Books Week from October 1-7, 2023. Resources for educators can be found here.
